The ability to store vast quantities of data and the emergence of high speed networking have led to intense interest in distributed data mining. However, privacy concerns, as well ...
IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) employs the distributed coordination function (DCF) as the fundamental medium access function. DCF operates with binary exponential backoff...
This work analyses two heuristic algorithms based on the genetic evolution theory applied to direct sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) communication systems. For diff...
Nodes in sensor networks often encounter spatially-correlated contention, where multiple nodes in the same neighborhood all sense an event they need to transmit information about....
Due to its ability to provide collision-free packet transmission regardless of the traffic load, TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) has been applied in ad hoc sensor networks. W...
